Chapter 7 — Female Khanh Dai Ly Temple
“The Queen wants to chase away all evil.” He said. I closed the file, my finger on the cover. "We have to combine the two cases together to be able to root them out." I took out all the evidence that I had arranged in the past few days from the secret compartment. Although the queen has silently destroyed many existing clues and evidence, I clearly know all of her plots and calculations in her previous life. I relied on my memories, arranged and pieced together little by little, and finally found a loophole: "The night Concubine Le passed away, there was a bowl of medicine that was switched. In the royal doctor's notes, it was said that it was a sedative soup, but before she died, the maid on duty at night left a will." "The will clearly states the true method of that sedative soup. Just find this will. In addition to the witnesses and evidence of the military food case, the two cases can be presented to the court at the same time. "In my previous life, I found this will. But at that time the evidence was extremely convincing, so it was not used. This life is different. The letter became the most important evidence to overthrow the queen. Three days later, the letter was found. At the same time, a former subordinate of the Ta family who was contacted by Ta Kinh Xuyen returned from the southwest, bringing with him a part of the military food records. All evidence is complete. The day I presented evidence to the court, I stood outside the main hall. Ta Kinh Xuyen used the name Tran Bac Hau to enter the palace, denounce the current queen, and at the same time asked the emperor to allow me to enter the court. The whole court was shocked. The Emperor looked at the real evidence I presented and his face turned pale. But he was still worried about the reputation of the harem, just wanted to handle it lightly, banishing the queen to the cold palace to finish the matter. Seeing that, I immediately stepped up and asked His Majesty to send the Crown Prince into the palace, saying frankly that Phi Phi Le's tragic death in the past could not escape being related to the Queen. Not long after, the Crown Prince was brought into the main hall. He raised his head and looked at me. In the depths of his normally silent and lonely eyes, a ray of light could not help but flash. I calmly presented all the criminal evidence that I had prepared in advance, and loudly reported: "In the past, when Concubine Le was pregnant with a dragon, the queen herself intentionally framed her." This is a serious crime of openly plotting to harm the royal heir, causing chaos in the harem. Even a queen cannot escape crime. After the words ended, the loyal servants and generals who had been oppressed, harmed, and wronged by the queen also came forward one by one to complain. Each case is recounted, revealing the queen's evil deeds and slanderous tactics over the years. At court, the queen sat on the phoenix chair, her face as gray as ashes. She wanted to say something, but when her mouth opened, she couldn't say a word. Not long after, the emperor decreed the queen's death, imprisoned her in prison, and re-tried two major cases. 11After the queen's fall, the two major cases were cleared of wrongdoing. The Emperor issued an edict to restore the title to the Ta family, posthumously conferred on Ta Dinh Vien the title of Trung Liet, and granted subsidies to the clan members. The Ta family's old subordinates returned from the southwest, helping the elders and children back to the capital. That day, Ta Kinh Xuyen stood at the entrance of the southern alley of the city, watching the clan elders step down from the carriage one by one, everyone was in tears. He stood outside the crowd, not moving forward. I walked over and stood next to him. He didn't look at me, but reached out to hold my hand. Long, slender fingers, clear joints, warm palms. I let him hold, not withdrawing my hand. That day, the Crown Prince honestly reported to the emperor all the causes, consequences and events that had happened between me and my sister. Only then did the emperor know who was truly investigating and solving the old cases
ta. Long Nhan was extremely happy. The Emperor immediately issued an edict, specifically ordaining me as a Great Agent, allowing women to enter the court and take charge of trials and prison sentences. Afterwards, divine will judged the Thoi family guilty of burying talent and fined him one hundred taels of gold. At the same time, I ordered all the glory and dignity that the Thoi family had relied on to gain from their false reputation to be revoked, along with a fine of one hundred taels of gold, and gave it all to me. The day I took office, my sister came.
